Earlier today Nintendo went all out with release dates and Gamescom details; the announced line-up of games is pretty substantial for the thousands of attendees likely to flood into the booth.

Though the expo in Cologne opens to the public on 6th August, Andy Pearson of Funstock has been at the event today along with press and industry attendees. He's kindly provided us with a whole lot of images from the big N's booth, showing the size of the area, the various sections and their games, in addition to Mario's secret chill-out area.

Check them out below, and let us know whether you're heading to Gamescom over the weekend.
